Text Size

Most NRCS web pages contain a dynamic "text size switcher" in the upper-right corner beneath the photograph. Selecting one of the links will adjust the site's text to a larger size. The default size is the smallest of the three options.

Some additional information and conditions for this feature to work are:

  • If first-party cookies are not allowed in your web browser's security settings, the text size will reset back to the default when browsing between pages.
  • For privacy concerns, you text size preference cookie expires after 24 hours.
  • The switcher requires a modern web browser that can interpret alternate style sheets. This includes Internet Explorer 5 and above, Gecko-based browsers, Safari, and Opera 7.
  • JavaScript and Style Sheets must be enabled.
